We are learning more than we ever wanted to know about cement vaults and caskets, about regulations governing death and cremation. The decisions are hard and the solution costly to dispose of the tiny shells that were our children. Yet they are important for those of us who remain...It's hard to endure one day after another. They are not getting easier, nor are they getting better. We still miss our children. When will we be at peace?
Nathaniel, Joash and Ashley's ashes rest at Blk D (Daffodil), Level 2 Niche 230, Mandai Columbarium. We visit them every Sunday for they are never far from our thoughts...

Yes Steph, my hubby took the pics himself. Thank you for recommending CCK Marble Co. They were compassionate, sensitive to our needs and gave good service.

Dear Angie and Dave,
Nothing beats the pain of the little ones gone just like that. I understand how you guys feel, because we also lost our little lad, whom we name Baby Hope.
Be at peace, I believe they are all at peace and love in God's arm right now. And I don't think they will be happy if they know their daddy and mummy are sad and not at peace.
Time will heal all things.
May God bless and keep you
May God's face shine on you
May God be kind to you and give you peace.
I'm sorry to hear about your loss.. doubt there's really anything much I can do for you all, but I'll pray for all. :o) Take care!
I probably could never do anything to help you guys. But please know that i will keep you in my prayers, be strong & take care.
p.s Mr Sim I'll see you in school some time soon.
Dearest David and Da Jie Jie,
Hug... no words could express our feelings... We just saw the plaque for your little ones... It's really very unique and beautiful. The Psalms touch our hearts. Reminding us that life is so precious and fragile. We really must treasure this life that God has given to us. Live our lives well and to the fullest. You both will gain greater strength from God as you continue to press in and stay there for each other. Nothing is impossible with God. Seek Him in all. Thank you for sharing the blog.
Love you lots,
Wei and Sheryl

I am sure you angels are in good hands nw, watching over you each day...
May GoD Bless You... Hugsss
Angie & Dave,
The Lord bless and keep you. Rest assured your bundles of joy are where they would love to be - always close to our Heavenly Father. "No tears enter the gate", I remember clearly how it was written on one of the Precious Moments figurine I chanced upon. Your little ones are happy, and they wish the same for you too.
God bless!
Hi Angie & David,
I'm really sorry to hear for your lost, but all your angels rest in peace now.
Keep strong both of you. You are wonderful parents.

Dearest David & Angie,
What a beautiful resting place with 3 beautiful dolls representing your 3 lovely angels!
Though both yours is a road less travelled, I firmly believed one day, God will fill yours heart with new and greater joy and both of you will no longer feel empty.
Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always.
Remember, both of you are not alone, you are always in our heart and prayers.
Love,
Uncle David & Aunt Sarah
Dear David and Angie,
I read the article in Lifestyle about your loss... And again I was reminded of what you have and still are going through. You both have such big hearts and you WILL get what you are seeking one day. Be strong, have faith and remember your children will always be with you...
Take good care.
Hi
Saw the Lifestyle article today. My most heartfelt sympathies. We went through a similar situation years back. I went through a major crisis of faith and like daddy david, I could not look at any other cute toddlers without feeling a heavy weight pulling at my heart for years. What I can only say is that the grief and pain will lessen as the years go by, though never forgotten, just like a scar healing from a wound. Ashley's daddy and mummy will need to make a conscious effort to move on, after the grieving period and not go into a vicious cycle of grief, like I did initially. My downward spiral also hurt my concerned extended family, and at that time, I was not aware, being totally consumed by grief and self pity.

Ashley looked peaceful and beautiful in the small white coffin. The pictures brought back memories for me. These memories now feel uncomfortable, unlike the previous heart-stabbing kind. It is my sincere regards that your family will reach this stage of acceptance of God's providence soon too.
Hi Daddy & Mummy,
After reading yr articles, i was so touched by it, my tears just keep running.... cos i totally understand how u guy feel deep down inside ur heart, no parents will want to see their baby in NICU, whether under no circumstance or not, when my son was in there for 6days, i cried for 6days, my heart was so pain that, its like ppl take a knife stabbing my heart. At that moment, i felt so helpless...nothing can help him but let him stay in the box.....it really aching, no words can describe. Hereby, I really hope daddy and mummy must stay strong and health. ;o)
Hi Daddy & Mummy
wishing you strength to cope with & manage your grief; time will undoubtedly prove to be a great healer & henceforth, you will be able to let go & move on whilst still cherishing memories of your babies; all the best wishes ...
Hey hello!
i just stumubled upon your blog, and i really do feel your sadness. eventhough im only a teenager, but i know what's wrong, and how you're feeling. Im sure Our Lord God almighty will help you, and im sure when the day you're in heaven, You'll see them! it's really sad to see you guys like that, But may our Lord, Bless you, and console you! :)
